Gluten-Free Sugar Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 cup softened unsalted butter or refined coconut oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar or monk fruit sweetener
  • 2 eggs or egg substitute
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups gluten-free flour blend or your favorite GF flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in eggs, one at a time, then add vanilla extract and mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
  • Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes.
  • Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, decorate the cookies with icing or sprinkles if desired.
